Birmingham Junk Pickup – Fall Cleanouts

The Environmental Protection Agency is stepping up their cleanup up efforts in North Birmingham. This is a project that started back in 2011 around the sites of former factories. Now these areas are being added to the National Priorities List. That means all eyes are on Birmingham. “The purpose of the National Priorities List is an information tool to say to the public that these are the highest priorities in the nation for the Superfund program,” Jennifer Wendel, National Priorities List coordinator for EPA Region 4, told AL.com.

This is all part of the Superfund law that designates money to those areas that are determined to be in the most immediate need of thorough cleaning. Let’s be honest… there have probably been times when you though your home could use a little EPA action! Before you call in the authorities, you might want to try Junk King. These are the professional junk haulers who make cleanup a breeze.

Fall is the perfect time for a good house cleaning. We’re heading into the holiday season and that means the potential for a lot of visitors. Some of these visitors might just be popping in for a family meal. You still want your home clear of clutter. If those guests are going to be staying overnight, then you definitely want to make them feel comfortable. You don’t want them sleeping in the spare room that has become a storage locker. With Junk King on the job, you’ll be able to have that room cleared out in no time.

Junk King will send over a two-man team and big truck for your junk pickup assignment. “Pickup” is the key word here. That’s because that Junk King crew is going to be doing all the real work for your cleanup. They’ll remove any object, no matter how heavy it is, from wherever you’ve got it situated. Yes, this could mean the Junk King crew will be making several trips up and down basements stairs but that’s just fine for them.

The crew will sort everything you’re getting rid of in your junk pickup appointment. They’ll be looking for any object that can be donated or recycled. That’s just how Junk King operates. You’ll know what you’ll be paying before the work starts and that will be based on an estimate of volume. Junk pickup is 100% hassle free when Junk King is on the job.

What To Avoid In A Birmingham Junk Removal Company

Over in nearby Bessemer, a group of dedicated volunteers are showing up again for the annual Valley Creek Clean-up. This is an event held on a Saturday morning. Cleanup supplies and T-shirts will be provided to everyone who shows up. Last year’s cleanup resulted in over 34 tons of trash and debris removed from Valley Creek. Take a moment with that figure. Thirty-four tons of trash were dumped in the creek. That means that hundreds of careless people went to the trouble of loading up their cars or trucks with their trash and then drove to the creek thinking this was the perfect place to dump it. If only there were cameras along the creek to catch these illegal dumpers.

Birmingham Junk Removal

Thankfully, most Birmingham residents will take the responsible path when it comes to junk removal. That means hiring a professional company like Junk King. As you start your research for a junk hauling company, you’ll be presented with a lot of options. One company that should rise to the top is Junk King. They’ve been in the junk hauling business since 2005. Since setting up the standards for junk removal, Junk King has grown to over 60 franchises in 22 cities. Everywhere that Junk King sets up shop, they quickly become that area’s number one junk removal service.

The company you hire needs to work around your schedule. Junk King provides a two-hour window for a junk removal appointment. That is a lot better than the cable or gas company that will keep you waiting all day. You’ll be given a call when the crew is 20 minutes out. That way you know when to expect them.

The crews working for Junk King have all been trained in the proper moving techniques. They are also all insured. These are the only type of workers you should have on your property. The Junk King crews will be moving your junk from its current location. You shouldn’t have to bring anything out of your house. If a company asks you to put something on the curb, then they’re really not working for you.

Junk King is also dedicated to making sure Birmingham stays green. Much like those Valley Creek cleanup volunteers, the Junk King crew will be looking for opportunities to recycle what they collect from your property. You don’t have to ask for this service and you won’t be charged extra. Ask around and you’ll find that Junk King delivers the best junk removal service in Birmingham.

The Future Of Junk Hauling In Birmingham

One method anthropologists and archeologists use to study human behavior is to look at the trash we throw away. If they come upon the ruins of an ancient village, they’re sure to find a kind of ancient landfill nearby. Often, the trash is the only stuff left behind. If these researchers find broken pottery then they know the kind of bowls these people used for eating and cooking. The same can be said for discarded tools. They’ll also find the bones from the animals they were part of the diet. There is a lot you can discover in the garbage. What kind of story would your garbage tell? Too scary to think about? Perhaps in the future, there will be a method of instant incineration of your garbage. Think of it as a trashcan size disposal. Until then, the future of garbage collecting and junk hauling will look a lot like it does today. Whether you depend on the city workers weekly pickup or the professional services provided by Junk King, it’s clear we all need help to get rid of our garbage.

The weekly trash pickup is easy to contend with. Whatever goes in the cans, goes in the trucks. If you’ve got something that won’t fit in the can, then that is when you bring in Junk King. These are the junk hauling experts who never met a pile of rubbish they couldn’t remove.

Start with Junk King around your yard and get them to pick up all the stuff that has been stacked up over the last several months (years!). This could be things like lumber, fencing, roofing materials, construction waste, scrap metal and piping. That space next to the garage has always been a perfect dumping ground for this kind of trash but you don’t need to hold onto it any longer. The Junk King crew will also help remove nature’s trash like leaves, tree branches, dirt, stones and bushes.

When the crew is done with the yard cleanup, you can direct them to remove the unwanted items from your garage, basement, closets and attic. You don’t have to move anything on your own. The Junk King crew is capable of taking away any item whether that’s an old computer or a busted piano. The future of junk hauling belongs to Junk King. Put them to work for your home today.

Birmingham Dumpster Rentals Vs. Junk Pick Up

Not everything you want to throw out is going to fit into your garbage can. Sure, you can stuff that can full of your trash on a weekly basis but when it comes to the oversized objects you’ll need a better option. That option boils down to two choices: a dumpster rental or professional junk pick up from a company like Junk King. Which is the better pick for your clean out?

waste-1-153850-m

When you rent a dumpster, size matters. Keep in mind that you can only fill up a dumpster to just below the rim. Anything that pokes out over the top of the unit will have to be removed. If you end up picking the wrong size dumpster, you’ll be stuck with any leftover rubbish until you rent a second dumpster. This can cause a huge delay in your cleanup effort. With Junk King, size doesn’t matter. That’s because you can get rid of anything and everything in a single junk pick up appointment. Junk King will provide a huge moving truck that you can totally fill up or not. Either way, all your junk will be gone.

There is also the labor factor to consider. Having a dumpster means you will be doing all the loading. You can always ask friends for help or hire day laborers but you would clearly be adding an extra step and cost to the project. On the Junk King side, you’ll be provided with two very capable movers who will do all the work for you. No matter where you’re storing your rubbish, the Junk King crew will go there to take it away. That includes going up and down stairs as needed.

Another extra step with a dumpster rental is the need for special permits. This applies if you have the dumpster place on the street. Depending on your neighborhood, you might be able to secure a permit online. On the other hand, it could require a trip to a municipal agency. There are no permits needed for Junk King. They are a service-based company like a plumber or electrician. You hire them for a job and they take care of it from start to finish.

Although renting a dumpster seems like a practical idea, there are drawbacks. Simplify your junk pick up by hiring Junk King from the start.

Birmingham Debris Removal

Birmingham Concrete Disposal and Recycling

The summer is about the outdoors. This is when we do plenty of grilling, swimming and hanging out on the porch. It’s also a great time to work on sidewalk and driveway repairs. You want to pour cement on those sunny, dry days when it can cure and harden quickly. Replacing your driveway in the winter isn’t an option. If you’re going to take on this kind of DIY project, you’ll find all the tools you need for rent at your nearest hardware depot. This includes jackhammers, cement mixers and troughs. That’s the kind of equipment you’ll need to tear up the old concrete and pour in the new. What you need to add to this equation is a company who can handle your concrete disposal. Your best bet for that task is hiring Junk King.

cracked-concrete-155949-m

Although they specialize in home junk removal, Junk King can pretty much haul away whatever you want to get rid of and that includes chunks of concrete. It’s important to hire a company who has experience in concrete disposal. That’s because you’re dealing with an item that can end up being extremely heavy. You don’t want some fly-by-night operation making several trips to get rid of your concrete. With Junk King all it will take is one trip to remove it all. There won’t be any weight restrictions with Junk King. You’re only going to be charged a flat fee based on who much space your junk will take up on the back of the truck. There won’t be any extra charges tacked onto the end of the job.

Along with your concrete disposal, you can take advantage of the Junk King appointment to get rid of all the other unwanted items that are cluttering up your home. If your garage is overflowing with rubbish or you can’t get around your basement because of all the stuff, then turn it over to Junk King.

In addition to doing all the removal work, the Junk King crew will also be on the lookout for those items that can be recycled. All of that concrete that you’re getting rid of can be ground down and used again. That will reduce the burden on the area landfills and that’s good for all of Birmingham. Don’t break your back with concrete disposal. Let Junk King handle the job from start to finish.

Birmingham Couch Pickup

Thanks to advances in Internet technology, it has gotten a whole lot easier to report litterbugs. In fact, the site LitterBug.org is dedicated to just that. Not only can you post an incident of littering but also you can get specific with the street address. That is linked to Google Maps, which zeroes directly in on the offender. A recent post from Birmingham found that “Household members are dumping their household trash directly on street curb, across from their house. They are not using a garbage can. Trash is blowing throughout neighborhood.” Although it is easy to report these types of incidents, there is no guarantee that authorities will be able to act promptly. That is especially true of illegal dumping. You might report a sofa that was left by the curb in your neighborhood. However, unless you get the license plate number of the person doing the dumping, that sofa will be stuck there until municipal workers have the time to pick it up. That’s why you should leave couch pickup to the pros. Those pros would be Junk King.

Hoarder Cleanup Help In Birmingham

Are you worried about becoming a fully-fledged hoarder? There are some warning signs. First, look back at your childhood. There are certain hoarding tendencies that have a generic component to them. In other words, if your parents were hoarders you are predisposed to become one yourself. If you were collecting weird things as kid, it could be a precursor to adult hoarding. We’re not talking about Star Wars action figures but things like food containers or anything else that you kept hidden. If you exhibit any type of obsessive-compulsive behavior like chronic hand washing or debilitating routines, then you might be on the hoarding path. Of course, the number one warning sign has to do with your willingness to cleanup your act. Just because you have a lot of junk in your home doesn’t automatically make you a hoarder. It just might mean that you don’t have the means to throw out the trash. That can easily be fixed with a call to Junk King.
